Capt Stephen D Hill, SASS #56151 Posted March 1, 2016 Share Posted March 1, 2016 Anybody give me an idea what a "brass" Malcolm scope is worth??! It's 32" and I think it's marked Navy Arms. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cheatin Charlie Posted March 1, 2016 Share Posted March 1, 2016 The ones I have seen for sale seem to go from $150 to $200. That being said the normal mounts that come with it suck! I picked up the shorter version a couple of years ago and the mounts were built like Unertl mounts. If you could get $ 200 out of it I would say you had a real good day. I only bought mine cause I got it for $60 with the better mounts. Remember Tasco is out of business and you are on your own fixing it.

Stone Devers Posted March 1, 2016 Share Posted March 1, 2016 One just sold on Ebay for $260 with all the hardware. Another is currently being auctioned with a starting bid of $150 but has 5 days to go. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dusty Morningwood Posted March 2, 2016 Share Posted March 2, 2016 One just sold on Ebay for $260 with all the hardware. Another is currently being auctioned with a starting bid of $150 but has 5 days to go I think the one on ebay had much better mounts than what came with it. I had one of these on an Italian Sharps percussion rifle about 30 years ago and it would not hold its setting after a single shot. Just sitting there it looked cool, though.

Hillbilly Jim Posted March 3, 2016 Share Posted March 3, 2016 I have a similar concern on value of an original 6 power Malcolm. It has mounts and end caps. I have owned the scope for 40 years having acquired it from an elderly womans estate sale. Any idea of value would be nice Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any idea of value would be nice Thanks If it is a true Malcolm scope go to the ASSRA (American Single Shot Rifle Association) they use and collect vintage scopes and can give you an idea. You would have to have pictures that show the condition. Remember Condition is everything. Or do your own investigation on the auction sites.

Neches 50502 Posted January 9, 2017 Share Posted January 9, 2017 Cheating charlie his is not an orginal malcolm scope because it is marked navy arms. The navy arms brass scopes are of low quality and not worth much. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
